It actually frustrates me that plug-in hybrids do not get as a lot consideration as EVs. I’ve obtained a 2017 Chevy Volt which will get 40-50mi of EV vary earlier than switching to fuel. It is one of the best of each worlds as a result of my regular commutes across the metropolis are at all times absolutely electrical however I can go on highway journeys with out counting on spotty charging protection. Plus, they nonetheless get the added advantages of lowered upkeep and superior mpg even for the fuel powered portion (32-40mpg for my volt).
You’d suppose they’d be extra in style with EV infrastructure nonetheless in its early days and EVs tending to be extra expensive. I believe a part of it was lack of promoting and explaining to the general public their advantages in comparison with EVs/ICE vehicles. Now the Volt has been discontinued and I am unhappy lol
